A condensed, heavy sans with squarish, rounded-rectangle counters and consistently rounded terminals. Strokes stay largely uniform, producing a sturdy, poster-like color, while curves resolve into soft corners rather than true circles. Proportions are tall and compact, with a high x-height and tight apertures that keep forms efficient and space-saving. Numerals and capitals follow the same superelliptical logic, emphasizing verticality and strong internal rhythm.
Best suited for headlines, short blocks of copy, and identity work where a compact, high-impact sans is needed. It performs well in signage and packaging where strong weight and efficient width help maximize legibility and space economy.
The overall tone is practical and contemporary, combining an industrial directness with softened edges that feel approachable. Its compact stance and blunt shapes convey confidence and clarity without looking sharp or aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, space-efficient voice built from rounded-rectilinear geometry—prioritizing a strong silhouette, consistent stroke logic, and a modern, friendly-industrial character.
Roundovers are a defining feature across straight and curved joins, giving corners a cushioned feel and helping the dense weight remain smooth at larger sizes. The condensed width and closed counters create a solid texture in paragraph settings, favoring impact over airy openness.
